No, it is not a file format or such, it is an application interface 
for database access.


We use ODBC drivers for Oracle and DB/2 at work.

Our apps assemble SQL statements and route them via ODBC
to the database and retrieve the results.


In your case I would expect something like MS Access
behind the ODBC driver.. don't know.

Coping with ODBC seems to be a science of its own, alas.
